You can not use the smaller chat window unless you pay for the premium. The price was right so I purchased it. When I went to activate the smaller chat window it prompted me again to pay for premium to use that feature. There were no prompts or instructions on how to activate the premium feature after you have paid. I have sent emails and even opened a ticket on paypal but have yet to receive any response. There doesn’t seem to be any support available for this product. At this point I am feeling like I have been scammed.

Love this plugin, makes it very easy to collaborate regarding changes on the site. Just one feature I would love to have added – email notification of new messages. It would be great if it could be a choice for each user, too. But that’s not a deal killer – still a great little plugin! Thanks so much for your hard work in coding and sharing it with us!
